Firefox Community Forum

My firefox push notifications won't stop popping up on my screen, I attempted clicking to disable notifications and won't stop. Keeps saying WARNING! via (bunch of letters and numbers) click here to secure your device. At this point I know it is a way to infect my computer when I just followed a secured link for school in my email and got caught somehow in a web. Hopefully this makes sense, my initial thought to troubleshoot is to uninstall and reinstall Mozilla Firefox?

Please help... Within the last couple of FireFox (FF) updates — PDF's will no longer save to external drive. The drive is secure, not full... and have no problems saving files there — except when using print to PDF on FF.

Went into Download Subfile Under Settings:

Current Setting: Save Files to: Downloads / Ask Where to Save

Went further into subfiles: Changed Some to 'Always Ask' Is there a way to reset what the settings were? Concerned I may have changed some that should not have been changed. Changed to: 'Always Ask'

Content Set to ‘Always Ask’: AV1 Image File (AVIF) com.logitech.logioptionsplus irc ircs Microsoft Word MPEG Audio PNG Image Portable Document Format (PDF) tg WEBARCHIVE file webcal

Content Set to ‘Save File’: Extensible Markup Language (XML) Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)

Content Set to ‘Open in FireFox’: JPEG XL Image File WebP Image

Set PDF to 'Always Ask' - Did Not Resolve the Printing Problem.

Thank you for your time & assistance. Appreciated.

I updated today because of the CA issue but this version of Firefox seems not to be able to save PDF files. This might be a bug.

What I did to try to resolve:

1. Tested saving PDFs from different websites: no PDFs were saved. All failed silently (Save as PDF dialog closes as normal after I select the destination for the file. No file is produced, no error message is shown.)

2. Checked to see if a different application could save PDFs today on my computer. No problem. It's just Firefox.

3. Restarted Firefox: same problem

4. Restarted my Mac (mini m4, Sequoia 15.8.1): same problem

Note: Printing on paper from Firefox still works.

I'm currently in macos 15.8.2 that was the start of the issue. Till a few weeks ago I could print to samba mounts without issue in Firefox. Currently nothing gets saved(no requests for permissions if that was an issue, no errors). I have 5 other browsers on this machine, all can save pdf prints without issue. I have been jumping between browsers and moving PDFs printed on my local device for a week.

Dear Sir/Madam, I was using Mozilla Built-in VPN for quite some time. But, since yesterday I am receiving the message "due to local laws and restriction limits you can not use VPN". I was happy with having the Builtin VPN. I don't know what has happened. Regards, Javid

I was was reviewing my FF settings to help a friend mimic some of my privacy and autoplay options (including settings in about:config regarding animations, autoplay, media, video, etc), and without deliberately changing anything related to my cookies permissions, I somehow messed them up my daily logins. I clear cookies and browsing data when I close the browser, but allow a half-dozen trusted sites only to keep their cookies. Despite my best attempt to save them as exceptions under

Settings > Privacy and security > Browsing data > Manage exceptions

I now have to login every time. Trying to figure out what I changed--or a helpful cat may have changed while walking across the keyboard and interrupting--and how to change it back. I've been reviewing the support articles but can't find my answer.

FF 160.0b5, MacOS 26.7.1

I may be slow in responding because I'll be away from this computer for the rest of the day, but I really appreciate tips on how to navigate this again.

I am 80 years old and don't access profile or anything "complicated" very often. Yesterday night I somehow got into some page showing information on my account. At the top it showed my daughter-in -laws email address "angelascurti213@gmal.com". My email address is "wschneider842@gmail.com". Back in April she was visiting us and I helped her set up an email address with Firefox. I have no idea how her email address in essence usurped my Firefox information. I intended to correct the mistake however, I don't know her passwort. To change anything you are sending emails to her email address. She doesn't live close by, she is at work now, so I can't connect with her. how do I change my Firefox account, which I have had for many years with the correct information?

when ever i try to turn on the vpn, it lets me get started and sign in, then it directs me to the vpn pop up in which im supposed to turn it on, but there is no button or switch to, it just has the same "get started" button

Hi for some reason a website i have used for over 12 moths every day is now saying the the certificate is insecure when on speaking to them everything is fine and in fact i can gain full access via Chrome.

I would much prefer to use your platform.

Can you advise please a way around this.
